There are many, many different breeds of chicken. Chickens come in lots of various shapes, sizes and colors. Some breeds of chicken are bred for different purposes. Some chickens have been developed for superior egg laying and others are grown as meat birds. Others are developed for both. Commercial egg laying farms tend to use two particular breeds – the Rhode Island Red chicken and the Leghorns. These chickens lay white and brown eggs which are the ones usually found in shops and supermarkets. Below are some popular chicken breeds.

The egg laying age starts at 5 – 7 months old with about 15 eggs laid per cycle. Each egg weighs 30 grams. The mature weight is 1.4 kilograms for male Ac chickens and 0.8 – 1.2 kilograms for female Ac chickens.
Andalusian Chickens are small, active, closely feathered birds that tend to be noisy and very rarely go broody. Andalusian chickens are a typical example of the unstable blue colour we see in the poultry industry. The Andalusian chicken is the result of a cross of black and white. When two blues are mated, they produce offspring in the ratio of one black, two blues and one white. These whites and blacks when mated together will produce mainly blues.
Andalusian chickens are beautiful when good, however, the percentage of really good ones runs low in many flocks because of this colour segregation. Hence, they are not widely bred and never in large numbers. Male Andalusians (Cocks) weigh around 7 pounds, the females (hens) weigh around 5 – 5.5 pounds, cockerel (young male) 6 pounds and babies (pullets) 4 – 4.5 pounds. Andalusian chickens skin colour is white beneath the feathers and they lay white eggs. Andalusian chickens tend to be an ornamental species of fowl, however, they are good egg producers.

The Silkie is a variety of chicken believed to have originated in eastern Asia. It is one of the ornamental chicken breeds. Silkie chickens are known to have an incredibly sweet temperament. Silkies generally have a fluffy appearance due to their feathers lacking functioning barbicels (a part of the tree formed by feathers). All their feathers are similar ‘down’ (a layer of fine feathers).
Silkie chickens unique appearance and their quiet temperament mean they are often kept as pets. The hens easily become broody, laying only a dozen or so eggs before attempting to hatch out their clutch. Silkie chickens are considered excellent mothers. Their broodiness makes them a poor breed for egg production and their dark skin makes them difficult to market as meat birds in Europe and America.
Silkie chickens have a walnut, crested comb, feathered feet and five toes as opposed to the usual four. The American Bantam Association accepts six standard colours for silkies: black, blue, buff, white, partridge and grey. There are bearded and non-bearded varieties.
Silkies were originally bred in China, where they are still kept (and eaten) today. Marco Polo is reported to have encountered Silkies in China at the end of the 13th century, where they are raised for the gourmet meat market to this day. Silkies are only bantam size in the USA. American silkies are actually intermediate in size, not proper bantam but not large fowl either. Elsewhere there are standards for both the bantam Silkie and the standard Silkie. Silkies are used in traditional Chinese medicine, due to their dark skin colouration.
